Vert

What does it take to launch faster? For Innovative Healing Solutions, it meant avoiding costly delays, streamlining vendors, and getting compliance-ready packaging - all in under two weeks. Custom packaging, seamless supply chain, and proactive problem-solving made all the difference. Swipe through to see the full transformation. ??

A packaging delay isn’t just a delay, it’s a domino effect that can cost you time, money, and trust. John nailed it in this clip: Resting on your laurels isn’t an option. If a shipper can’t meet a deadline, you find one who can. If there’s a bottleneck, you fix it - fast. Too many teams operate in silence, hoping issues solve themselves. They don’t. Transparency and speed in problem-solving aren’t “nice-to-haves” - they’re the only way to run a tight operation. Want to avoid chaos? Over-communicate. Act fast. Never assume someone else will fix it.

Speed or cost? Why not both? ?? With Vert, you don’t have to choose between fast lead times and cost-effective production. ?? Have your cake: Fast lead times, real-time communication, and local manufacturing. ?? And eat it too: Low-cost, high-volume production through nearshore & overseas supply chain. Why settle when you can have it all?

Packaging buyers: It’s time to get ahead of the storm. Rising costs. Shifting trade policies. Supply chain delays. Most brands will wait and react. But the smart are already adapting their packaging strategy to turn these challenges into competitive advantages. Join us for a LIVE LinkedIn Audio Event TODAY, March 13, 2025 @ 10:00 am MT ??

???? Ontario’s Premier is openly discussing cutting off oil supply to the U.S. ???? China just slapped 100% tariffs on Canadian pork and beef. ?? Taiwan Semiconductor (TSMC), Apple’s key chip supplier, tripled down on U.S. manufacturing. Committing another $100 billion to its Arizona operations, bringing the total to $165B. CPG brands are talking about tariffs, but the bigger conversation should be about risk mitigation. This isn’t just policy talk. These are real economic shifts with massive supply chain implications. The shocks of 2018-2021 exposed just how fragile global trade is. Now, we’re staring down something even bigger. One that could reshape entire industries and leave unprepared businesses scrambling. But with disruption comes opportunity. The companies that plan ahead will be the ones that capitalize when the tides shift. If this is on your radar, join us this Thursday at 10am MT as we break down: ?? How to stay competitive amid tariffs & trade wars ?? Risk mitigation strategies for supply chain resilience ?? What this means for packaging and procurement in CPG Would love to hear your thoughts here or on Thursday (event sign up in the comments). What concerns or opportunities do you see in all of this?

New import tariffs just went into effect, and for businesses relying on global supply chains, this is a big deal. Currently, we’ve opted to not pass these costs through to our customers, instead working with our supply chain to absorb them at the manufacturing level. But this moment is bigger than just pricing. It’s about rethinking supply chains, reducing risk, and building resilience. So, what does that mean for you? It’s time to get strategic. Diversification and agility are no longer "nice-to-haves", they’re essential for long-term success. We’ll be breaking this all down in a LinkedIn Audio Event on Thursday, March 13th at 10 AM MT. Let’s navigate these shifts together. Join the conversation: https://lnkd.in/gvyv7jW5
